    HP Motherboard - BCU Tool access denied

    Hi everyone, I replaced a customers HP desktop's motherboard, first time ever replacing the full motherboard.
    After replacement, when booting up I get the message "Invalid or missing product information" etc, I'll include a picture. When entering the pc will just boot fine, but this doesn't look too professional towards the customer.

    With the help of Google I found out I have to use the Bios Configuration Tool to re-tattoo the serial and such back onto the motherboard, but when I want to do so trough the CMD I get errors saying "access denied". Anyone any experience with this? Thanx in advance!

    This is the video I was following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GrAg5KXEY4

              The OP hasn`t mentioned the model number.. ,we could check if there`s an Interactive BIOS simulator ,and post screenshots.
              .

                If you transfered the bios chip then you would still have to tattoo it,also the ME firmware would need cleaning if its an Intel model.

                      Hey, I'm very sorry but I can't really remember. I just kept messing around with it until it worked.
